This is because the tests are "testing for something not in the vaccine," says Dr. Seth Cohen, an infectious disease physician and medical director of Infection Prevention & Control at the University of Washington Medical Center. The vaccine and the tests are based upon different parts of the COVID virus. "All the vaccines in the United States use the spike genetic material," says Kamil. "All of the home tests detect something called nucleocapsid," a protein not found in the vaccine. https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2022/10/04/1126542224/coronavirus-booster-faq-can-it-cause-a-positive-test-when-should-you-get-it Thanks.

Wait are you claiming there were a meaningful # of schools closed in October 2021? Because that’s not true at all. Many were requiring masks though at least at first and more people were probably actually keeping their kids home if they were sick, so maybe that helped keep down RSV cases… Heck the MSM was even talking about RSV outbreaks last winter, I’m sure it was talked about here. Yet, looking at the data, that wasn’t really true—the season started earlier and lasted longer, but cumulatively was similar to pre-Covid years. Even this year, it started earlier again, but TBD if that will mean it will actually be worse overall. And it would need to be significantly worse for the total of the 3 years to be worse than it would have been if Covid never happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems the medical community has not pinpointed the underlying mechanisms, but the hygiene hypothesis for young children is a real thing supported by epidemiological data. Here is an article about it regarding asthma, and RSV in particular, from the FDA: https://www.fda.gov/vaccines-blood-biologics/consumers-biologics/asthma-hygiene-hypothesis And this about autoimmune disorders, from Frontiers in Immunology and Nature: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fimmu.2020.615192/full https://www.nature.com/articles/nri.2017.111 From this last article: Quote The incidence of autoimmune diseases has been steadily rising. Concomitantly, the incidence of most infectious diseases has declined. This observation gave rise to the hygiene hypothesis, which postulates that a reduction in the frequency of infections contributes directly to the increase in the frequency of autoimmune and allergic diseases. This hypothesis is supported by robust epidemiological data, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. So we might see a significant increase in allergies and autoimmune disorders from the isolation. BTW MIT Medical is a care network, not a research organization. This one cites your article and then seems to somewhat refute it, for infants/young children anyway: Quote In a paper that appeared in the journal Perspectives in Public Health in 2016, Prof. Sally F. Bloomfield and colleagues examine Dr. Strachan’s original paper. They write: “The immune system is a learning device, and at birth it resembles a computer with hardware and software but few data. Additional data must be supplied during the first year of life, through contact with microorganisms from other humans and the natural environment.” ... The authors point to the post-hygiene hypothesis theory known as the old friends (OF) mechanismTrusted Source. Introduced in 2003, it suggests that the important exposures to microbes in early life are not actually colds, measles, or other childhood ailments, but rather those microbes that were already around during the hunter-gatherer period, when the immune system was evolving. These microbes include species that live in both indoor and outdoor environments, and they come from the skin, gut, and respiratory tracts of other people. “OF exposures are vital,” say the researchers, “because they interact with the regulatory systems that keep the immune system in balance and prevent overreaction, which is an underlying cause of allergies. Diversity of microbial exposure is key.” They note that the most important times in life for OF exposure are during pregnancy, delivery, and the first months of infancy. They also add that continuing exposure from the mother and siblings is vital. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/how-have-pandemic-lockdowns-affected-the-immune-system#Some-microbes-are-friends,-others-are-not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
